Minister for Infrastructure and Transport Darren Chester said Ms Gosling would bring extensive public sector aviation experience to the IASC role.

“Ms Gosling has extensive public sector experience, including over 10 years at the senior executive level in the Australian Public Service, where she led several important national transport regulatory reforms,” Mr Chester.
